THE LIGHTING INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION (LIA)
The Lighting Industry Association has been representing the lighting industry for many years and has an established reputation for representing and assisting lighting-related companies.
Recent years have seen incredible changes in lighting, how it is created and used, and those working with lighting are now a wider and more diverse group than they have ever been. Whatever your involvement maybe, The LIA is here to support you and your organisation to a successful future.
Our mission is based on three pillars: Connect, Support, Represent. We offer comprehensive support services, technical expertise, training, product testing and certification to our members. Additionally, we advocate for their interests at all levels, raise industry standards, and facilitate valuable networking opportunities.
These pillars allowed us to rationalise and group the many benefits the LIA offer into a more digestible format.

ARCHLUM
At Archlum, we don’t just make lighting — we shape experiences. Rooted in the belief that light profoundly influences how we feel, see, and connect with the world around us, our work sits at the intersection of design, technology, and human wellbeing.
Developed in close collaboration with the renowned Bartenbach Optics, Archlum is our signature brand — a quiet force in architectural lighting. With a precise, understated aesthetic and an unwavering commitment to visual comfort, our luminaires are crafted to blend seamlessly into their surroundings, allowing the light itself to take centre stage.
Every beam is thoughtfully engineered to enhance the mood, rhythm, and clarity of a space — whether it’s a tranquil home, a dynamic workplace, or a landmark that tells a cultural story. Our advanced optical systems and sustainable LED technology ensure not only efficiency and longevity, but also a gentler, more natural visual experience.
We see light as a language — one that speaks through atmosphere and detail, shadow and glow. That’s why we work closely with architects, designers, and engineers, ensuring each project becomes a harmony of vision, purpose, and technical finesse.
From ambient to accent, bespoke to bold, Archlum brings light to life — illuminating not just buildings, but the people within them.
